Reviews (1)
My usual starting point for rating a series is three stars. This time, however, the show's creativity pushed me to add an extra star. Judging from the pilot episode, it seems this won't be a series for fans of action-packed scenes. But hey, as long as it's not about fishing, I'm on board.
